Hi,
Will appreciate if someone can help.
We are on version 3 and SP 17. The problem is as follows:
We have stock items (line type ‘S’) that are stored in one branch plant this is then transferred to the shop floor (shop floor is another branch plant) when a material request is received from the shop floor. Material requisitions are done using P4310 with document type ‘MR’.
The order activity rules for MR / S is as follows:
Last Status Description Next Status
100 Enter Material Requisition 120
120 Print Material Requisition 999
999 Complete – Ready to Purge
After the storekeeper transfers the material to the shop floor he runs the ‘Print Material Requisition’ report (R43500), which closes the open requisition. However, when we inquire the stock item on the item availability screen (P41202) the ‘On Receipt’ column shows quantity in that column which is equal to all the material requisition raised till date (open and closed) and open purchase orders. This value is misleading to the purchase officer and affects his decision to place new purchase orders.
Hope someone can tell me where we have gone wrong in the set up and what is the corrective step to be taken to resolve this issue.
Thank you
